How did it come about that the Presidents Cabinet is made up of the heads of the 15 executive departments?
It's not some amazing thing that the senior officials of the executive departments " just happen to be" the President's advisors on matters relating to their departments; it's more that the President appoints people whose opinions he trusts to be department heads.
The term "Cabinet" was used starting in the 1600s for a small private room where advisors could meet, and came to apply to a group of advisors themselves. It's not defined in the US Constitution, it's just a continued usage of what had come to be a common and widely understood term.
